There are 2 versions now.... old version (23 years solera) is balance rum in the sweeter side with complecity and well aged in bourbon barrels... taste reminds me Zacapa XO new version but with little bit boost of alcohol-fire taste & caramel-butterscot taste (sweeter) & without zacapa herbs-botanicals. Powerful and sweet! Not for beginners becase it is little bit strong taste of alcohol & wood (bitter) but not really dry it has a lot sweetness but with great balance for my taste. A bit different from other Oliver rums but it has some similarities. A very good sweet rum but it has little more caramel or something for my taste. Dont get me wrong overall it is really great just not my favorite but close...

Second version is solera from 12 to 15 years, double aging bourbon and cognac oak make it smoother less woody-bitter & more complex. Also it is more fruity, spicey with velvet ending! Overal both of them are close with some differences... from one side new version has milder taste & intresting flavour, but from other side old version is little bit more mature & intense! For me both of them are very good with a small edge to old version...

Really interesting rum. It has an amazing odor. It sends you in direction of something really sweet and nice. Touch of orange and sweetness. The taste is nice and sweet. It is a little strong in the after taste - in a great way. Recommended for the experienced rum taster.

Här snackar vi rom.
Vilken arom och smaken, den är helt utsökt, och blir inte avskräckt av vol. % den är på 65 vol. % men det märks varken på arom eller smak eftersom den har fått mognats och lagrats väl.

Dette er en fantastisk blød og behagelig rom, der smager super godt. meget tæt på en 10´er.

Vanilla and brown sugar, with a slight alcohol burn.
Oliver & Oliver taste, but not too strong.
Nice rum.

Awesome dominican rum! Not the smoothest one, but still very smooth. Not the sweetest one but still sweet one. Close to perfection.

Sampled Ron Esclavo XO rum as part of my Rum Advent calendar. I expected this rum to be very sweet based on my own research and it is, indeed, very very sweet, to the point where the flavors of the rum are hardly noticeable. Those who prefer sweetened rum will definitely enjoy this one but for me it hardly qualifies as a rum.

Smooth and neat rum with rastes of vanilla and honey.

Something that is needed at home

Sweet, caramel taste. Slightly too harsh and too short. The base is there, but it doesn't fully come to life
